I am Zainal, a 25 yr old software developer from India. After
debating with my conscience for a long time, I finally mustered
enough courage to renounce the treacherous path of Islam and live
life in a free and fair way. All this was possible thanks to your
website and the convincing content.

I realized that Islam is like a fruit which looks round and yummy
from outside but when you crack it open, it is simply a hollow
circle. That is why no one is permitted to question and debate on
some ridiculous practices in Islam.

Actually Islam only thrives on comparison... obsessive
comparison... and that is precisely what makes it dangerous.
Obsessive comparison, in other words to be constantly involved in
superseding someone simply bears more jealousy, hatred, anger and
scope for boundless revenge. I realized in Islam it is always us
versus them... the believers versus non believers. Initially I
thought the difference was between the believers in one Supreme God
versus those who believe in multiple Gods. But that is not the case.
It’s simply those who believe in only Allah versus those who do not
believe in Allah.

My Muslim relatives and friends used to always belittle and
insult our Hindu neighbors and kin at large poking fun at their
absurd noisy customs/rituals, their various Gods and their
"indiscipline" (Hindu religion allows Hindus to lead their life as
per what they think is logical). I was always puzzled because I
found Hindus more civilized, patient, lovable and truly forgiving
than most Muslims. More importantly, most of my Hindu friends and
neighbors lived peacefully and happily. Their homes were usually
filled with laughter. In contrast, most Muslim families quarreled
amongst themselves. Most families have 5-6 children who seldom
complete high school and therefore end up doing menial jobs or small
street side businesses while the Hindu parents who have 1 or 2 kids
almost always send their kids for English education and ensure they
complete their post graduation or professional course. I also found
Hindus more hygienic and well dressed. They love our country India
while most Muslims who stay here favour Pakistan over their own
country; especially if there is a contest between the 2 countries. I
find that really absurd and repulsive.

As I grew up and started doing my engineering, I found myself
more tilted towards my Hindu friends and accepting their customs,
mannerisms and more importantly their ideology to be practical,
loving and generous with others. Once when I debated with my
intellectual Hindu friend, I found that Hinduism also professes the
claim of One Supreme Divine Force (God). Their idols are simply to
depict thye many qualities/characteristics of God. That is when I
learnt about the false propaganda of Indian Mullahs to create
misunderstanding about Hindus and Hinduism.

I gradually realized the flaws in Islam and the tremendous
negative impact it has on the Muslim world. Till Islam does not
perish, Muslims will continue to live in stone age while their
neighbours will prosper simply because they use their mind. And
Muslims will continue to hate them and always plan to destroy them.
Finally the last turning point in my life came when I fell in love
with a beautiful Hindu girl. She was much better looking, well
settled and more qualified than me. We fell in love and decided to
get married.

Initially I was skeptical about her parents accepting me because
I was Muslim. (Most Hindus and Sikhs in India dislike Muslims
because of their jealous and dangerous nature). Instead, they
wholeheartedly welcomed me within their family. I though just like
Muslims convert non-Muslim spouses to Islam; these folks are going
to convert me into Hinduism. Again I misunderstood their religion.
Not once did they ask me to give up Islam. All they requested is not
to force their daughter to eat beef. (Most Hindus do not eat beef).

When I used to visit my fiancée's house, I chanced upon Hindu
texts like Bhagwad Gita and Rig Veda and happened to read it. That
was the final straw. I realized how it would be to live life on my
own terms, to use my own intelligence and have a flexible attitude.
And then just after we got engaged I decided to renounce Islam. I
did not disclose it to my parents but shared this decision with my
fiancée.

Today we are happily married. I consider myself a free
thinker...not Muslim...not Hindu...not linked to any religion. i.e.
I respect all religious customs/traditions/beliefs but choose to
follow what I like and don't make fun of any ridiculous tradition.
Thankfully my marriage has been saved from the venomous fangs of
Islam. In contrast my Muslim friend who married a Muslim girl is
considering divorce.

I feel fortunate that I chanced upon your website at the right
time. This website gave me the courage to follow my conscience and
be a free bird who can soar high up with the others and not sit by
the roadside cursing those who fly and plotting revenge!
